My Skills

I have always been very thoroughly and precisely in my work—and I try to keep the big picture in mind. My clients have always valued the following traits:

  • I have always been a fast learner and can get deeply into new topics.
  • I am a problem analyser and solver.
  • I write clean and structured code following the rules established for the project.
  • I am passionate about documentation, by writing both lots of comments in code and documents.
  • I can break down complex tasks into smaller chunks and am able to teach them to others.
  • I value working in a team and giving and receiving respectful feedback, e. g. in coding reviews.
  • I can build a web site from the ground up with a text editor.

The following shows a list of technical skills I have used professionally and I am proficient in. There are many more I have used in testcases or learned in tutorials but have not (yet) been able to actively use, e. g. ember.js, React.js, ES6+, Node.js, several PWA features e. t. c.
